lyrics

I wanted us to find the ancient wisdom,
unveil the secrets hidden in the center of the Sun.
That's why I gave you home, that's why you built a temple,
but then you set the place on fire, ran outside and watched it burn.

You praised me like a queen,
but then your faith grew thin
and now I see -

You never meant to understand.

I wanted us to be all-permeating
ever-glowing, never-ending
two eternal sparks.
But then you strayed away and then you faded,
your shadow only lingered like an ember in the dark.

I'm diving in the dawn,
my loss and fear are gone,
I swim alone.

You never meant to understand.
